The treatment of skin cancer has become an increasingly
multispecialty practice. Ongoing surgical and postsurgical advances
and emergent factors that predispose patients to these tumors have
changed the treatment paradigm. Having a keen understanding of
diagnostic, surgical, and nonsurgical treatment options is key to
identifying, treating, or referring patients with potential
cutaneous malignancies. While Brian R. Gastman's Cutaneous
Malignancies: A Surgical Perspective is the first of its kind to
emphasize surgical management of skin cancer, several sections are
devoted to systemic nonsurgical therapies affecting patient care
and surgical intervention. Topics encompassed include prevention,
diagnosis, medication management, appropriate margin size,
reconstruction methods, and the importance of stellar
dermatopathology. Key Highlights The role of Mohs micrographic
surgery and radiation in skin cancer treatment Treatment approaches
for the two most common forms of skin cancer respectively, basal
cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma Surgical treatment of
cutaneous malignant melanoma and other high-risk malignancies
Clinical insights on completion lymphadenectomy and sentinel node
biopsy for melanoma, two topics rarely addressed in context with
skin cancer Diagnosis and treatment of rare malignancies including
Merkel cell carcinoma, dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, cutaneous
angiosarcoma, and cutaneous leiomyosarcoma More than 400
high-quality illustrations further delineate surgical modalities
Edited by an esteemed dual board certified plastic surgeon and
otolaryngologist, this definitive book is the most complete guide
to surgical management of skin cancer. It is essential reading for
plastic surgeons, dermatologists, otolaryngologists, and all
clinicians who treat or refer patients with suspected skin cancer.
